Subject: [Exim] How to raise the limit on the number of messages per connection?
We have a large number of Windows servers hosting various 3rd party
applications. Some of these applications are used to send a large amount
(can be tens of thousands) of e-mail to subscribed users.

Now, because we have no control of the 3rd party developers, they can
choose to bung e-mail at the exim box any old how, we often need to
change parameters to insane amounts to let/get stuff through. (Often,
there is no queuing by the application).

In the latest case, we keep giving out 421 error messages to the
application, because of too many messages sent in each connection.

My question is, which is the correct parameter that controls this?
